Long John (Zimbabwe)
Long John (real name, Learnmore Mwanyenyeka) is a funny guy!
The last 8 years have seen him rise from “Zimbabwean funnyman” to
“acclaimed African comedian”, with sterling performances all over
SA and the UK.
He has shared the stage with some of the biggest comics in Africa
(Riaad Moosa, Ane Kansiime, Loyiso Gola, to name a few) and is
definitely one to watch out for!
Charming, honest and ridiculously funny, the man is a delight to
watch!
Neil Green (Dbn)
After a decade in the COMEDY INDUSTRY, Green has garnered a reputation
as one of Durban’s funniest comedians, and is indeed a rising star
in the SA COMEDY INDUSTRY.
Not only a highly sought-after comedian and accomplished MC, he is
also a highly respected East Coast Radio DJ with a growing following!
Green’s sharp wit, commanding stage presence, packed-out one-man
shows (‘I’m Ill’; ‘Last Boss’) and hilariously honest take
on life have won him legions of fans throughout the country.
Look out for this guy!
The man literally has jokes for days…
Jem Atkins (DBN)
Arguably one of the funniest entertainers we know…this Durban local
has been hosting and headlining shows for several years now!
His hit one-man shows – “Single Dad” & “Single Dad II”-
received rave reviews in 2014/2015, and he has since performed all
over the country with some of the biggest names in the industry.
This guy is very entertaining!
Mohammad Vawda (DBN)
He’s only been on the Durban COMEDY SCENE FOR A FEW YEARS, but
already this proudly Muslim comedian is showing he has what it takes!
With a confident stage presence and 100% clean, well thought-out gags,
he is charming and undeniably funny!
His beat-boxing skills, spot-on accents and hilarious stories have
made him popular across all ages and demographics as he amasses a huge
following in Durban.
He has toured the country and performed with the biggest names in the
industry.
Most recently, he was personally chosen by Riaad Moosa to be his
opening act in Durban, and also performed on Riaad Moosa and Friends
at the 2500-seater Globe theatre, receiving fantastic reviews!
